Team XRAY XB8E 2021 1/8 Offroad Race Car 350158
All-new 2021.
- New E concept with two different layout alternatives:
- Rear motor position with a single battery position on the left
- Front motor position using saddle pack batteries in the rear
- All-new “Eazy” body makes the car significantly easier to drive
- Redesigned chassis layout to accommodate the new E platform with improved flex characteristics and new balance weight mounting positions
- 2 piece battery holder for saddle pack layout improves balance and lowers vehicle CG
- Standard battery holder moulded from new harder material for reduced flex
- Includes two graphite servo holders, one for each motor/battery configuration
- Compact electronics mount for speedo and receiver when using the saddle pack battery configuration
- Servo saver stands with chassis lock to ensure secure installation and a shorter servo linkage for the new servo position
- Stronger and longer servo saver spring has a greater working range
- Servo saver top deck with two chassis brace positions eliminates servo saver bind
- Shorter 93mm rear drive shafts improve outdrive clearance during extreme suspension travel
XB8 Platform.
The XB8E shares a majority of its parts with the ultra-successful XB8 platform with several details fine-tuned for the electric buggy class. Wherever possible, the XB8 and XB8E share suspension and driveline components to streamline spares and tuning parts between the two cars without making any compromises to on-track performance. This minimizes the number of extra parts needed to support both nitro and electric editions even smaller for the extremely durable recent generation XRAY 1/8 off-road platform.
Unique E concept.
The XB8E’21 features an all-new unique E concept with two different layout alternatives.
1. Front motor position with saddle pack batteries
Second alternative places the motor in front of the center differential opposite the servo, and uses a split, saddle pack battery layout. The motor has better cooling in this front location and the split batteries typically maintain lower temperatures during each run.
Suggested for bumpy tracks and when higher corner speed is required.
2. Rear motor position with a single battery position on the left side
Standard e-buggy position places the battery on one side with the speed control, and the motor, servo and receiver on other side of the chassis.
Suggested for very low grip traction conditions or when more chassis roll is desired. The center of gravity of this layout is generally higher due to battery orientation.
